Lets put this into point slope form, than solve for slope intercept.
y-(-2) = -2(x-3)
y+2 = -2x+6
y = -2x+4

peter buys 12 bunches of bannas for 9.00. use a ratio table to determine how much peter will pay for 8 bunches.

erik [133]

We are given that Peter buys 12 bunches of bananas for 9.00.

We need to determine how much peter will pay for 8 bunches.

Let us set up proportion now.

12 bunches of bananas for 9.00 = 12 : 9

Let us assume Peter will pay for 8 bunches = $x.

Therefore, 8 bunches of bananas for x = 8 : x.

<h3>Setting up proportion:</h3><h3> $\frac{12}{9} = \frac{8}{x}$ </h3>

On cross-multiplying, we get

12x = 9×8

12x = 72.

Dividing both sides by 12, we get

$\frac{12x}{12} =\frac{72}{12}$

x=6.

<h3>Therefore, Peter will pay $6 for 8 bunches.</h3>
